The Little Details Make a Big Difference

For the people that will soon call Maris Grove home it’s having the little things available here on campus that make all the difference. “People are so attracted to this lifestyle because we make it so easy for people to enjoy the good life,” says Julieann Brant, one of Maris Grove’s retirement counselors. “We provide an array of unmatched amenities at a tremendous value and take care of nuisances like shoveling snow, raking leaves, fixing appliances, landscaping, trash removal, security, and more. Residents will have more time to truly pursue their passions.”

No More Worries—Everything’s Taken Care of for You

The 87-acre campus will be well-known for its spacious, maintenance-free homes, 100% Refundable Entrance Deposit, and resort-style amenities like an all-season swimming pool and hot tub, restaurants, Fitness Center, full-time Medical Center, and more.

But what many people are unaware of are all the small conveniences and services that Maris Grove offers:

Car Service

At Maris Grove you’ll never be late for a flight again because the taxi never showed. Instead, for about the same as what it would cost you for a taxi, have our friendly driver take you to the airport, to a social engagement, or anywhere else in between.

Trash Removal

When you move to Maris Grove, you’ll no longer have to wrestle with awkward trash cans or drag messy trash bags to the curb on an icy morning. Instead, you’ll enjoy the convenience of doorside pick-up multiple times a week.

Transportation

The weather’s lousy and the last thing you feel like doing is driving to the grocery store. At Maris Grove, you don’t have to. Our shuttle service will follow a weekly schedule to local grocery stores and shopping venues. So instead of fighting traffic, you can sit back, relax, and arrive curbside.

No more forgetting to pick up the dry cleaning. Simply call one of our local cleaners, and they’ll pick up your cleaning and deliver it to your door when it’s ready.

Packages

No more rushing to  beat the mailman home. At Maris Grove, you’ll never have to worry about missing an important package. We’ll hold your package at the clubhouse front desk, and let you know it has arrived.

Snow Removal

Our maintenance staff will keep the campus free of snow and ice even in the worst winter storms. But what about the snow that piles up on and around your car? No problem. For a small fee, you can have a member of our team clear your car for you, while you relax in the warmth of the clubhouse.

Have Your Next Party Catered

Having a dinner party? Special family meal? Throwing a birthday gathering for a relative or friend? At Maris Grove, planning a party will be easy when you use our convenient catering department. So whether you want a four-course meal served in your apartment, an intimate holiday meal in the private dining room, or cake and ice cream on the patio, you can concentrate on your guests, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Handy Man at Your Service

When you move to Maris Grove, you’ll never have to worry about repairing the leaky faucet or replacing the stove—all maintenance on your apartment is included as part of your convenient monthly service package. But did you know that at Maris Grove, you don’t even have to change a light bulb anymore if you don’t want to? Call our general services department, and for significantly less than what you would pay a handy man to come to your house, we’ll send someone right over, and hang your new print for you . . . paint your apartment . . . or rearrange your furniture to suit your tastes.

Housekeeping

For a competitive rate, our professional and trustworthy staff will make your apartment sparkle. So whether you want those regular weekly cleanings, a good “once over” every month, or an annual spring cleaning, you pay for the  services when and if you choose to use them.

Prescriptions Delivered to Your Door

A full service pharmacy will be located right here on campus. So you can pick up your prescription on your way from lunch, or have it delivered to your door for no extra charge.

Your Own Fitness Specialist

Maris Grove will have a state-of-the-art Fitness Center available on campus.

Membership is only $15 a month—less than half the price of other fitness clubs in the area, and includes three complimentary, oneon- one sessions with one of our fitness specialists to help you plan a fitness regime that’s right for you. Plus, our specialists are always available, free of charge, to answer your questions or show you how to use our state-of-the-art fitness equipment.

Guest Rooms

Your friends or relatives want to come for a visit, but where will they all stay? How about right here oncampus? Maris Grove offers comfortable guest rooms you can reserve for much less than the going rate of a nearby hotel. Plus, you’ll enjoy your privacy, but with the convenience of having your guests just an indoor walk away.

Plus Write Just Two Checks a Month

These are just a few of the small conveniences and services that will make living at Maris Grove so carefree.

But perhaps the best part of living here is that you’ll no longer have to write eight to ten checks a month for your various bills. Instead, you’ll simply write two—one for your monthly service package and a second for your phone bill.

The monthly service package is a fixed price, based on the type of home you live in, and it makes staying on a fixed budget much easier. No guessing the cost of this winter’s heating bill or next year’s property taxes. Instead, your utilities and your property taxes are included, along with most all of your other monthly expenses. In fact, you won’t even have to pay for basic cable service—that’s also included.

And Maris Grove will make it even easier, because other services that you pay for throughout the month, like housekeeping, your fitness membership, and snowremoval can be conveniently added onto your total monthly service package.
